Martin Tolhurst Solicitors

They did our last lease they were slow and never called you back now we need a new lease on a new factory unit I have called 3 times same story no one there and no call backs.

I have used the Gravesend branch (Roger Matharoo) for over 3 years for a number of property purchases and remortgages. Totally professional, always on top of everything and an absolute pleasure to deal with. Would highly recommend.

After a dreadful start of selling my house and not having hardly any contact in 15 weeks and then being told my buyers had pulled out, I had lost confidence in solicitors in general. But luckily I found Martin Tolhurst and in particular Tom! He was brilliant all the way through. He dealt with both sale and purchase. Wasn't an easy transaction because at one time my buyers' solicitors insisted I had a tree preservation order!

I didn't even have a tree let alone one that needed preserving! But Tom dealt with it admirably dealing with me having a "my buyers will pull out" meltdown. But it eventually, after lots of stops and starts (no fault of Tom) completed last Friday! I don't know who was most relieved! Me or Tom. But seriously he is very very good at what he does, especially calming down a daft pensioner, even though there is probably 5 decades between us! Thanks Tom.

Roger Mataharoo - Martin Tolhurst Excellent service, very Professional and supportive. Always handled and answered any questions very quickly nothing was too much trouble. Would highly recommend. Thank you for all your help. Nick Sansom - Kimberley Grove

I instructed Martin Tolhurst to act on my behalf for the sale of my current property and subsequent purchase of another property. In the main it was handled efficiently but only after the original solicitor allocated left the company and my case was taken over by Richard Carter and Heidi Gray, who proved to be very good at keeping me up to date with the progress of the sale and purchase. Sadly at the outset this was not the case because if i required an update i continually had to seek out my solicitor for any information and often taking several attempts to do so.

I received more updates from the estate agents than i did from my solicitor. I would have given 3 stars based on the service received initially but would give 5 stars to Richard and Heidi so i think 4 stars as an average is fair.

Amazing Service and Highly recommended! After using many different solicitors in the past, it was one of the Best experience working with Roger and the team at Martin Tolhurst Solicitors who made the whole process smooth and efficient. Best of all, i was able to speak over the phone anytime i contacted, this is considered Luxury these days : Will contact them on my next property purchase and highly recommend.

I have and I will not ever again ring Martin Tolhurst after 3 times of ringing over a 3 week period and being told by the same person that your enquiries team will come back to me.and not even received one contact! I don't often do reviews but felt compelled to do so this time as shocked that such a large solicitor that have been in Gravesend for many years have provided such a poor service (no service)

Just bought our first house with them and everything went trough very very smooth, Rachel was a very professional conveyancer and kept us in the loop at all time. She was transparent and efficient and made the whole process a pleasure. I would gladly recommend them to anyone and definitely going to work with them again!

Excellent service. Andy has been an amazing help, I was diagnosed with PTSD earlier this year and one of my symptoms is lack of concentration. I explained this to him and said I needed extra help understanding my paperwork (re a property) etc. and he was so helpful, I highly recommend :) Thank you Andy for your compassion and understanding, looking forward to working with you again in the future.

I found Martin Tolhurst solicitors to be very helpful with their services. Kenneth Amkye was kind, understanding on the subject in question, giving non bias advice and direction. I was kept informed fully and supported in my case, being advised each step that had or could be taken.

I would like to express my deepest appreciation towards Martin Tolhurst and more specifically towards Mr. Dobson and all his administrative and legal associates who worked on my case. My case was about the relocation of my child away from the U.K. It was extremely confrontational to the degree of utter polarisation - at times probing the limits of civility. However, Giles managed the case impeccably and thanks to his services I can know look forward into the future with the 'glass half-full instead of half-empty'.

I would like to draw attention specifically to his exemplary customer-calibrated ethos. When the time came and we had to make a choice, while he could easily keep 'churning out' legal costs, he leant on me more as a friend and less as a legal counsellor with the aim to bring about closure - which we did. I, along with my daughter, 'owe' him.

I wouldn t recommend them to anyone.we decided to work with them as advised by the estate agent, but it was a big mistake.we keep on receiving letters, but when it comes to speak with our "allocated" solicitor.well she is nowhere to be found.when calling the number provided for contact, 70% of the time nobody answers, and when i finally get through someone it is always a secretary and the solicitor is either on lunch or not available. i left messages for her to call me back, and i am still waiting after 3 days from my initial call. we cannot sign the contract for the purchase of the property because we cannot seem to be able to speak with her. when asking questions about the searches performed on the property, the replies arrive after at least 3 days.when normally a phone call would have saved us the whole waiting time.

Then she just goes on holiday, without at least informing us, and we had to call them to enquire about the status of our purchase. so honestly.we would not recommend them as they do not seem to have the focus on the client, and their customer service is something that really needs improving.

compared to previous convanencing we have experienced, Samantha Newton And team at Longfield Martin Tolhurst it has been a walkn in the park.would strongly recommend.

I have been a client of Giles Dobson of Martin Tolhurst Solictors through an acrimonious divorce, then several years later a difficult matrimonial settlement, during this time Giles has been very professional, friendly and approachable which gave me a lot of confidence whilst going through this. He had a perfect understanding of the problems I was encountering and matters were brought to a satisfactory conclusion as a result of the first class service I received throughout. I have no hesitation in recommending him.

An excellent experience with Martin Tolehurst. My Advisor, Gemma Nie was brilliant, After listening to my requirements she gave me lots of options to suit my needs and kept me updated throughout the whole process. I would thoroughly recommend them. Contracts are now exchanged and completion this Friday 24/05/19.

We chose Martin Tolhurst because of the mostly positive reviews and we were so glad we did. Our solicitor, Gemma Nie, was faultless. She represented us professionally, efficiently, was super friendly and always picked up the phone if we needed to speak with her. Our sales agent's communication was extremely poor, so we were incredibly thankful for Gemma's prompt and concise responses.

It often felt like I'd barely clicked 'send' and her email response would come through. 9 weeks from start to finish selling our house and it would have been way more had she not been as on the ball as she was. Will highly recommend and use again without doubt!

If anyone is looking for a firm of solicitors, may I strongly recommend Martin Tolhurst , and a fantastic solicitor mr Giles Dobson. After a long struggle with my ex partner, he gave me hope and very good advice, ok it cost me a lot, but in the end it was worth every penny, and I have absolutely no regret in recommending the company. Good luck. And a massive thank you to this company, and mr Dobson.

I chose Martin Tolhurst Solicitors team in Sittingbourne as they are a local business and I have heard good things from friends and family in the past. The selling of my property felt like an organized process we did have delays from the buyers solicitors but this happens when buying/selling a property. My conveyancer was Lucy Rodrigues who we found very responsive, competent and professional. I would recommend Lucy Rodrigues and the team at Martin Tolhurst Sittingbourne.

I needed legal assistance in securing a charge on a property and Martin Tolhurst were happy to pick up from from the point I had reached with no suggestion they should start again - this impressed me straight away. They explained clearly what was necessary to complete the process and everything happened in a straightforward way. They did what they said they would, when they said they would and the outcome was I got the charge I needed in place. I couldn't have asked for more and was happier still when I received the bill - no more than I was advised!

I can not thank the Medway office enough for all their help with our house sale and new purchase. It was all handled very efficiently. If we had any questions Nichola was always on hand at the end of the phone or email. When we rang to talk to Lesley she had time to speak to us, in the past I have struggled to speak to the solicitor and felt they are too busy to talk to us direct that was not the case with Lesley.

Our sale went through a lot quicker than expected and that's down the hard work from the team at Martin Tolhurst. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Thank you for everything!

Martin Tolhurst (specifically Samantha Newton) has represented us in the sale of our house and the purchase of our new home. They are well priced I have been thoroughly impressed with Samantha and her team - helpful, diligent, efficient and responsive. I have been through this process a number of times before and compared to our previous solicitors, Samantha comes out on top by a significant margin. We will definitely employ Martin Tolhurst again should the need arise. Thank you!

Considering our sale went from start to finish in about 8 weeks, I can not fault them! Laura Stevens and Lindsey, as well as the rest of the team, were very professional and quick. I found them very approachable, they were always there to answer my calls or they would return the calls if they were busy. They were quick at sending out all documentation and we were kept informed through the whole process.

Their legal advice was sound and reliable, and I would not hesitate to return to them as a customer in the future. I'd like to take this opportunity to say a big Thank You to Laura and her team! Highly recommended!

Thank you Gez, Giles and team for representing us. And for successfully claiming back an unpaid invoice from a very difficult customer including our costs. A long battle but the truth prevailed with your expert knowledge.

Just exchanged on an investment property. 6.5 weeks from sales memos, awesome result by Sam Newton and the team!!! Thank you so much and wouldn’t use anyone else!!!
